Switching X Waiting?: For the Sake of Data Roaming

for the past ten years or even longer

i have been sticking to the same Telco

as I am not a heavy user

 

given my Telephone phobia

(telephonophobia, telephobia, phone phobia)

even more so

since i hopped on to

working full-time at home

 

my phone is actually on plane mode

24/7, 356 days per year

 

until this Data Backpack 

in the paper today grabbed my attention

and i actually went on the official site

to find out more about it

 

U Mobile - DATA BACKPACK

 

that’s nice

U Mobile - DATA BACKPACK 02

 

and even without an eligible Postpaid

the roaming rate is quite affordable to

U Mobile - U Data Roam

 

10 MYR per day for 12 destinations as below

U Mobile - U Data Roam 02

 

the main reason being

i might need to travel down to

Singapore quite often

 

was thinking of getting a local SIM card

but if i am switching to this Orange telco

that would have save me the trouble to do so

 

those were the days of having two SIM cards

but with one phone

with the other SIM card carefully tucked away

yes.. it never failed to occur

disappearance, misplacement, forgotten

 

suddenly reminded me of a scene from

《志明與春嬌 Love in the Puff》

you probably can figure out

what’s going on here

 

Miriam Yeung was discussing with

the Sephora colleague of

switching to the same Telco as Chimney

so that it’s cheaper for them to talk

 

and the colleague’s advice was

ok i actually forgot

but i found it quite useful

so i gonna dig that out now

 

p.s.

cookies being the new

omnipresent Big Brother

i actually found this in my mailbox

Hotlink Data Roam

 

or should I just wait for my

yellow telco to offer the same thing?

 

the current rate is so

wth, forget it
